    Obey God Rather Than Man

    Contributed by Nettie J Pennington on Sep 15, 2024
     | 192 views

    Be subject to authorities but obey God rather than man where there is a conflict.

    Who are you, whom do you serve? I pray you are a Christian, a Christ follower, and a Child of God. Who do you say you are? Children of God obey the laws of this earthly world AND the law that established all earthly rules, God’s Law. Humans are subject to appointed and divine powers. Man is ...read more

     | 1,122 views

    God’s truth does not change, and believers need to understand that there is no “my truth” and there is no “your truth.” There is only one truth, God’s truth.

    The truth does not change, and we need to understand that there is no “my truth” and “your truth.” It does not matter if you are a believer or not, there is only one truth, and for believers, that one truth is God’s truth.

    Who Do You Say The Lord Is?

    Contributed by Nettie J Pennington on Nov 17, 2023
     | 980 views

    The Lord I serve is omnipotent (All-powerful) and omnipresent (Present everywhere), the Son of the living God. He is the living God! You read the Scriptures, who do you say the Lord is?

    This question is part of a conversation between Jesus and His disciples. Jesus wanted to know their thoughts on what the people were thinking. It was at a time when many people were still confused and wondering about who Jesus was and why He was there. Remember the people were looking for an ...read more

    If You Want To Grow, Examine What You Think You Know

    Contributed by Nettie J Pennington on Jun 22, 2023
     | 1,520 views

    Give God the glory for all you are and all you will be. Let us look inside ourselves and find the person God created us to be. If you know yourself, more power to you, but we still need to examine ourselves, if for no other reason than that is what God told us to do. Examine Yourself!

    When you know who you are in Christ, you can easily follow the Lord’s Way and Truth. Some of you think, “That’s too hard.” However, I ask the Holy Spirit to bring to your remembrance that Jesus, Himself, said: “My yoke is easy, and my burden is light” (Matt. 11:30, NIV). If things are hard for some ...read more

    Be Careful Of Divisive Spirits

    Contributed by Nettie J Pennington on Jun 22, 2023
     | 882 views

    The goal of a divisive person is to cause conflict. "I urge you, my friends: watch out for those who cause divisions and upset people's faith and go against the teaching you received. Keep away from them" (Rom. 16:17, GNT)!

    People that participate in divisive arguments have an unhealthy interest in creating strife. However, a mature, faith-filled person recognizes that participating in contentious discussions will not end the matter. With the knowledge of God and the wisdom of the Lord, we understand that calmer ...read more
